Has the Sea Level Really Risen?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Climate Re-Posted Jan 28, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

NASA claims: Over the past 100 years, global temperatures have risen about 1 degree C (1.8 degrees F), with sea-level response to that warming totaling about 160 to 210 mm (with about half of that amount occurring since 1993), or about 6 to 8 inches. And the current rate of sea-level rise is unprecedented over the past several millennia.

I have lived on the beach most of my life. I have yet to see any noticeable rise in sea levels. The 2007 Climate Change report said that if the entire North Pole melted, this would result in a rise of 23

Here is Gore explaining that forecast with a map of Florida. I will point out the bottom part of the state is wetlands and marsh. They call it the Everglades. I live by Tampa, and that does not go beneath the sea, nor do most sea-hugging cities.

Not a single forecast Gore has made EVER came true. In fact, his film was held in a court of law to be untrue and misleading. Al Gore used his theory to gather a personal fortune that has exceeded $300 million. Gore’s movie, “An Inconvenient Truth,” put forth nothing but propaganda. It was challenged in the courts in London when they were trying to force students to watch it. The court found that Gore’s documentary contains nine key scientific errors. The judge declined to ban the Academy Award-winning film from British schools but ruled that it can ONLY be shown with guidance notes to prevent political indoctrination (see Telegraph 10/11/2007).

Yet this is the guy pushing the climate change agenda at the World Economic Forum. It has been Gore who is in league with Green Peace, and it was Green Peace’s Jennifer Morgan who escorted Greta Thurnberg to Davos. They have used Greta to try to sell their agenda and that failed.

No matter what evidence you supply, they are INCAPABLE of ever admitting a mistake. They raise tons of money on their theories. If they admitted they were wrong, the money would stop, and they would find themselves in court by all the people they have harmed.

There is far too much self-interest here to simply admit they made a mistake. The worst-case scenario was 23 inches if the entire North Pole melted. This has become a joke, but the joke is on us. In Canada, every house pays a global warming tax. The United Nations seeks to get all the nationals of the world to hand them the power to rule the world and to tax everyone on the planet 10% to fill the storage rooms at the UN with endless supplies of money.

Welcome to the Climate Scam.

US & NATO Refuse to Grant any Concession to Russia


Armstrong Economics Blog/War Re-Posted Jan 27, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

It appears that the powers that be, have been wanting Russia to invade Ukraine and are probably going to church every day to light candles and pray for war. They desperately need a war to move on from COVID and the standard belief is that Biden needs to get his polls up. Pelosi has postponed her retirement because Biden is such a disaster that the Democrats fear they need to maintain some familiar voice and the is Pelosi and Schumer.

What they are NOT counting on is a coordinated effort between Russia and China. Next week starts the volatility. So be mindful that these people now need a war for the resistance against COVID has been far greater than they anticipated.

Tucker Carlson Interviews Freedom Convoy Spokesman, Trucker Benjamin Dichter

Earlier this evening Fox News host Tucker Carlson interviewed Canadian Freedom Convoy spokesperson Benjamin Dichter about the motives, purposes and intents of the trucker protest. {Direct Rumble Link}

During the interview Mr. Dichter noted how the vaccination passport was yet one more step in the ability of the government to track, monitor, approve and possibly block free movement.  Additionally, the trucker gave a real-world example of that issue recently surfacing when he crossed the border and the crossing guard told him his cell phone location data and his vaccinated status was already tied into the border checkpoint system.

Mr. Dichter was surprised at how quickly the vaccination passport tracking system was triggered and noted the U.S. border checkpoints likely contain the same type of privacy infringements.  WATCH:

Isolating at Home, a Cowardly Canadian Prime Minister Attempts to Avoid Ottawa Protest


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on January 27, 2022 | sundance | 337 Comments

As the Canadian ‘Freedom Convoy’ of truckers pushing back against COVID mandates, forced vaccinations and government regulations gets closer to Ottawa, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announces he will be isolating at home after exposure to the COVID ‘Protest Avoidance‘ variant.

Trudeau admits he has not tested positive, but thinks it is prudent to stay home just in case.

The fundraiser for the Freedom Convoy now exceeds $6.3 million dollars and still climbing.  It is estimated that somewhere north of 50,000 vehicles are participating in the convoy.  The Canadian government is very concerned about the political ramifications.

(Via Global News) – […] Truckers and supportive protesters are heading to Ottawa from east and west parts of the country, as well as from southern Ontario where routes were scheduled to depart from several locations Thursday including Windsor, Sarnia, Niagara and Toronto, according to the organizers’ website.

[…]  Among the topics at-issue for demonstrators is the Canadian government’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for cross-border truckers to avoid quarantine.

Mike Fabinski, a truck driver from Barrie, Ont., said the vaccine mandate for cross-border truckers means he won’t be able to work cross-border routes anymore.  “You want to be vaccinated, go ahead, your choice. I don’t want to be vaccinated, that’s my choice,” he said.

[…]  The protest also now seems to be targeting COVID-related mandates generally, beyond the one for cross-border truckers.

“What I’m calling for is basically lockdowns and restrictions to be lifted like the rest of the world is starting to do,” protester Mark Smith told Global News in Drumbo, Ont.

“There’s a freedom movement actually across the world right now and we’re all getting together just trying to get our lives back. And we’re hoping with all this rally and freedom convoy going on, we’ll accomplish this.” (read more)

These are the results of a grassroots demonstration that has evolved into something far bigger than any of the organizers originally envisioned.  I am reminded of Pope John Paul’s visit to Poland in the ’80s, when the solidarity movement first glimpsed the size of their unity.  They took to the streets, looked around at the crowds, and realized for the first time there are more of us than them… and then things changed quickly.  Hopefully for the Canadian people this convoy protest is a similar inflection point in history.

Justin Trudeau Accuses Freedom Convoy Supporters of Wrongthink, “Fringe Minority, Holding Unacceptable Views”


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on January 26, 2022 | Sundance | 425 Comments

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was asked today about the 50,000+ truckers and millions of supporters of the “Freedom Convoy” that is headed to Ottawa to protest the heavy-handed government COVID approach.

In true totalitarian fashion, the pontificating pustule of pompous promotion claimed the people protesting his position are a “fringe minority” of the Canadian people, holding “unacceptable views” against his regime.  WATCH (Prompted):

This guy is almost as bad as Jacinda Ardern of New Zealand.  How a majority of Canadian people could possibly support this arrogant and condescending weasel simply shows just how pathetic the political opposition in Canada really is.

Put a solid, strong and articulate conservative up against these creeps and things might change.  However, that person needs to be able to look the uber-leftist media in the eye, speak with plain commonsense, and call them on their bulls**t.

Canadian Trucker Freedom Convoy Is Likely the World’s Largest Vehicle Convoy in History


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on January 26, 2022 | Sundance | 427 Comments

The Canadian ‘Freedom Convoy’ of truckers, pushing back against COVID mandates, forced vaccinations and government regulations, began late last week and has gained incredible support from the public.  It is very challenging to put the scale of this grassroots effort into an adequate context.

Canada-Unity Site Here ~ Rebel News Site Here ~ Facebook Group Here

The fundraiser for the effort now exceeds $5.5 million dollars and still climbing.  It is now estimated that over 50,000 vehicles are participating in the convoy effort, and the Canadian Dept of Transportation is doing everything possible to stop, block and impede the assemblies.

Every federal truck stop and DOT weigh station has been opened, and every truck is being required to go through the DOT checks.   This is not accidental.  The movement has now evolved into a conflict of the average Canadian, represented by the truckers, -vs- the oppressive government, represented by the activated federal agencies of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.  It really has become an incredible example of THE PEOPLE -vs- GOVERNMENT.

The truck convoys started from British Columbia in the west, Newfoundland in the east, and Windsor, Ontario in the south.  However, cars, SUVs, vans, and small commercial trucks are now included in the massive convoy lines and joined with the big rigs.  On every highway along the way crowds are cheering and waving support for the Truckers.

Aerial views show some of the context for how massive these convoys are that are converging on Ottawa January 29th.  It is widely estimated, “If it gets there on time — and if the convoy holds together as it has in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan — it could be 10 times larger than the world record,” for the longest convoy in history.

These are the results of a grassroots demonstration that has evolved into something far bigger than any of the organizers originally envisioned.  I am reminded of Pope John Paul’s visit to Poland in the 80’s, when the solidarity movement first glimpsed the size of their unity.  They took to the streets, looked around at the crowds, and realized for the first time there are more of us than them… and then things changed quickly.  Hopefully for the Canadian people this convoy protest is a similar inflection point in history.

50,000 Truckers Protesting in Canada


Armstrong Economics Blog/Canada Re-Posted Jan 26, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT #1: The truckers should prevent all food deliveries to the capital. Starve them out!

anonymous

COMMENT #2: This could end up being the single most important Canadian demonstration in support of individual liberty. The repeated attempts by the MSM (and slime balls like Gerald Butts) is proof the elitist morons are very worried about this populist uprising. And of course, Erin O’Toole is hiding under his bed, afraid to stand up for anything that actually matters.

AR

COMMENT #3: This is Freedom Convoy 2022. You may be shocked by Biden’s collapse in approval, but he is still highs than Trudeau here in Canada.

HS

REPLY: This is impressive. Trudeau and Biden are merely following the directives of the Agenda 2030 which has been orchestrated by Schwab and his World Economic Forum. The sad reality is that we have to fight for our freedom in a land that claims to be free.

The Canadian Government Announce They Will Not Budge on Vaccine Mandate for Truckers


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on January 25, 2022 | Sundance | 414 Comments

Despite a request from Wall Street multinational business groups impacted by the threat from the truckers, the administration of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced they will not relent in their effort to force vaccinations on unwilling truck drivers.

According to Canadian media, the efforts of the insignificant proles behind the big rig steering wheels are easily dispatched annoyances when contrast against the unlimited power of the federal government.

The truck drivers will kneel before the mighty power of the administrative state, or the truckers will be ignored; it matters not.  The families of Canadian politicians can have their goods delivered from anywhere with taxpayer funds. The empty stores and supply chain disruptions will not be permitted to affect the powdered class.

CANADA – The federal government says it will not back down on its vaccination rule for cross-border truckers despite entrenched opposition from some drivers and groups claiming to represent their interests.

In a joint media statement released today, Transport Minister Omar Alghabra, Labour Minister Seamus O’Regan, Employment Minister Carla Qualtrough and Stephen Laskowski, the president of the Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA), said COVID-19 vaccines are the “most effective tool to reduce the risk of COVID-19” and protect public health.

In an interview with CBC’s Power & Politics, Alghabra said the government is not interested in alternatives like rapid testing for unvaccinated truckers. He said truckers and the wider industry have had months to prepare for the new regulations and drivers must now get the shot or stop driving over the border. (read more)

Meanwhile the GoFundMe effort to support the trucker pushback against government has now reached $4.7 million.

Updates on the travel and details are AVAILABLE HERE.

Empty Shelves Have Consequences, Canadian Multinational Business Groups Ask Government to Quickly Reverse Trucker Vaccine Mandate


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on January 24, 2022 | Sundance | 244 Comments

The support for the Canadian trucker protest is already getting results.   As we shared previously, ‘the absence of food will change things‘, and the reason is simple, it focuses priorities.

In the bigger picture, a grassroots protest from Main Street (truckers) forces the multinationals to a position of vulnerability.  The multinationals control the politicians, so any pressure applied directly to the multinationals ends up being transmitted to their beneficiaries, the government officials.

In the modern era, the professional left has used this dynamic to pressure corporations via organized activism and leftist demands.  However, the middle class actually has more power in this type of engagement, they just don’t use it.

The Canadian trucker protest is an example of the working class using the power of their influence.  The results are immediately surfacing.

The multinational business advocacy groups in Canada are now telling the Canadian government officials to back down from their vaccination mandate against the truckers.

CANADA – Business leaders are urging Ottawa to ease vaccine mandates for cross-border truckers to relieve the congested supply chain with the United States.  

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau defended Monday the mandate as a necessary step to keep supply chains open, arguing that COVID-19 itself is the biggest risk to Canada’s economy.  But in separate statements the Canadian Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Manufacturing Coalition both urged him to back down.

Perrin Beatty, the president of the Chamber, told The Canadian Press that while “we strongly favour getting as many people vaccinated as possible,” the government should allow more time before imposing the mandate on truckers.

[…] The Canadian Manufacturing Coalition, which represents over 30 manufacturing trade associations, called for a full reversal of the vaccine mandate after meeting Friday with Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne.

Dennis Darby, the president of Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters which chairs the coalition, told Champagne that “Canadians are seeing empty shelves” because vaccine mandates are making supply chain bottlenecks worse.

In a statement, Darby said the meeting with Champagne was “a good first step but now we need to see concrete action by the government to start addressing these challenges, starting with reversing the trucker vaccine mandate.”  (read more)

The middle class and working class can win this battle if they keep the pressure applied.  This is the fundamental truth within the “yellow vest” movement writ large, and it is the essential truth inside all Main Street economies.

The Canadian people can win this fight.  These signals from the multinationals are the first recognition of a changed dynamic.  Any scenario that unites the middle class against the corporatist system becomes a risk to the politicians and the corporations who pay for them.
